Governor Burnet.'s Birthday.

Ex-Governor Burnett, the first Executive
of the State of California, attained the ripe
age of four score years yesterday. Although
not robust, he still enjoys good health and
his mental powers are unimpaired. On the
occasion of his eightieth anniversary he re-
ceived the visit of many of his relatives
and friends, who called upon him at the
residence of his son, John NJ. Burnett, to
tender their congratulations and good
wishes. Among them were his sons-in- law,
Judge Wallace. of this city. and Mr.. Ry-
land, of San Jose, and General Sheehan.
In the course of conversation the last
named gentleman asked the veteran if the
first pioneers had any idea of the agricult-
ural resources of the State, which have
since become world-famous. In my first
inaugural message" replied the ex-Gov-
ernor. Il called attention to the fact that
the people did not appreciate the agricult-
ural possibilities of the country. Indeed,
they regarded the land as well-nigh useless
for cultivation. /, however, had other ideas
on the subject, Tor when in Oregon, previous
to coming to California, l had been told by
officers of the Hudson Bay Company of the
agricultural possibilities of the country,
and it was this information which led me
to turn my steps in this direction. That
was not misinformed the results have
plainly shown, and l may add that my
faith in California as one of the great
horticultural sections of the Union was
never shaken" IS T. Chronicle.

New Railroad Projects.

Charles Croker, ever since his return
from Southern California, has been busily
engaged in examining plans and surveys
for new lines in various parts of the State.
Mr. Croker is never willing to speak of
the prospective lines until their construc-
ton has been actually decided on, and in
an interview with Call reporter some
weeks back he declined to state what pro-
jects the company had in view.
The plans are now in a more forward
state, and in conversation with reporter
yesterday Mr.. Croker: outlined a series OF
important railroad projects, the greater
portion of which are designed to develop
the great San Joaquin valley. ION the
west side Of the valley" he said, we have
graded over forty-four miles, on fourteen
of which track has been laid"
A large force of men are at work ON this
line, which is being headed for Bakersfield
its prospective southern terminus. The
company, he said, is also about to COM
mence the construction of a line on the
east side OF the valley along the Sierra foot
hills, to run either from MERGED to Bakers
field, or from Oakdale to Poso. The sur.
vey of this line has already been completed
Regarding the southern part of the State
Mr.. Croker stated that the company de.
signed building lines from Los Angeles
through Pasadena to Monrovia, skirting
the foothills to San Bernardino, thence to
Redland, in the upper part of the San Der.

Catarrhal Dangers.

To be freed from the dangers of suffocation
while lying down; to breathe freely, sleep
soundly and undisturbed; to rise refreshed,
head clear. brain active and free from pain or
ache; to know that no poisonous, putrid matter
defles the breath and rots away the delicate
machinery of smell, taste and hearing; TO feel
that the system does not, through its veins aud
arteries, suck up the poison that is sure to IN
dermine and destroy, is indeed blessing be-
yond all other human enjoyments. To purchase
immunity from such fate should be the object
of all afflicted But those who have tried many
remedies and physicians despair of relief or
cure

of Catarrh, from a simple head cold to the most
loathsome and destructive stages. 1t is LEGAL and
